Treatment of tinea pedis is not difficult. Oral itraconazole 100mg bd with topical ketoconazole cream will give a very good result. However, recurrence is inevitable if tinea unguium is left untreated as the fungi will go from the toenails to infect the skin of the feet again. It is very important to treat the infected toenails as well. The treatment of the toenails might need a few months’ oral antifungal plus topical nail lacquer.
腳癬治療並不困難.口服 Itraconazole每日2次,每次100mg並外塗Ketoconazole cream效果良好. 然而,如果留下甲癬不治癒,脚癬肯定會復發,因為趾甲的真菌將重新感染脚部的皮膚.因此,同時治療甲癬非常重要.
趾甲癬的治療可能需要口服抗真菌葯加外塗趾甲塗劑幾個月.
